Keep It Simple

A quick Google search will yield hundreds of thousands of results on how to make adorable Christmas, birthday, or greeting cards. With all this information, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. But there’s no need to be stressed—sometimes simple is best!

Our Best Day Ever card is simple but sweet. We used Basic White and Costal Cabana cardstock for the base, then stamped with the In Symmetry Stamp Set to create a mirrored effect with Flirty Flamingo and Pear Pizzazz ink. We finished off this lovely card with a simple sentiment in Coastal Cabana ink.

Our Merci mille fois card took no time at all but still left a great impression. We used Basic White and Fresh Freesia cardstock for the base and stamped out some multi-level flowers with Daffodil Delight, Highland Heather, and Pear Pizzazz ink.

For our Du bist alles, außer gewöhnlich card, we used Subtles cardstock, cutting out 1-1/4″ x 3-1/2″ (3.2 x 8.9 cm) in Petal Pink and So Saffron and 2-1/4″ x 3-1/2″ (5.7 x 8.9 cm) in Calypso Coral. We adhered the strips to a 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ (8.9 x 12.1 cm) piece of Basic White cardstock with Stampin’ SEAL, then stamped out some cute images using VersaMark ink. We finished the card with an adorable sentiment stamped in Memento ink.
